Oklahoma (my home state) fully banned gender affirming care for EVERYONE regardless of age (Image below, please read it)

I'd be really happy if people shared this post around because I am sick and tired of nobody talking about this, y'all remember those anti trans laws that passed in Florida?

Those originated in Oklahoma.

My state banned gender affirming healthcare for anyone under 25 before Florida did and guess which one got widespread discussion and which one got completely ignored?

It especially hurts given all the violently racist and anti indigenous shit my state's governor has said over the years that has gone completely under the radar in wider online leftist circles.

Please have a moment of silence for the people who were killed instead of freed when news of emancipation finally reached the furthest corners of the american south.

have another moment for the ledgers, catalogs, and records that were burned and the homes that were destroyed to hide the presence of very much alive and still enslaved people on dozens of plantations and homesteads across the south for decades after emancipation.

and have a third moment for those who were hunted and killed while fleeing the south to find safety across the border, overseas, in the north and to the west.

black people. light a candle, write a note to those who have passed telling them what you have achieved in spite of the racist and intolerant conditions of this world, feel the warmth of the flame under your hand, say a prayer of rememberance if you are religious, place the note under the candle, and then blow it out.

if you have children, sit them down and tell them anything you know about the life of oldest black person you've ever met. it doesn't have to be your own family. tell them what you know about what life was like for us in the days, years, decades after emancipation. if you don't know much, look it up and learn about it together.

This is Juneteenth.

Of course, it is something to be celebrated. But don't forget the slavery that happens in the US American prison system and the pain that African Americans continue to be put through today by the disgusting institution that is the United States of America.

Always remember to support our African American comrades and their struggle.

The fight for Black liberation continues and must not wait on state proclamations.
